Hezbollah has confirmed the death of its leader, Hassan Nasrallah, in an overnight Israeli airstrike on Beirut.
Nasrallah, who had remained out of the public eye for years due to fears of assassination by Israel, was a key figure in the Middle East, known for his influence and leadership within the Hezbollah movement.
Nasrallah’s death is seen as a significant victory in Israel, which continues to conduct airstrikes on targets in Lebanon.
In retaliation, Hezbollah has reported firing rockets into Israel, escalating tensions between the two sides.
In addition to the strikes on Lebanon, Israel’s military intercepted a missile launched from Yemen by the Houthis, as air raid sirens rang out in Tel Aviv, signaling a widening regional conflict.
Hezbollah has vowed to avenge Nasrallah’s assassination and continue its fight against Israel, raising concerns about further violence and instability in the region.
